Suicide Prevention Day | Healthcare Today with HSA
As Suicide Prevention Week (7–13 September) unfolds, we take a closer look at the importance of suicide awareness and support here in the Cayman Islands.
On this episode of Healthcare Today with HSA, Community Psychiatric Nurse Dymphna Carten and Dr Liezel Anguelova from Faith Hospital share insights into local suicide trends, risk factors, and the warning signs to watch for.
They also discuss the mental health services available through HSA — including Alex’s Place for adolescents ages 10-20 years old, and the Behavioural Health Outpatient Clinic — and the critical role families, schools, workplaces, and communities play in prevention.
Tune in for practical guidance on how to support someone in crisis, create safer environments, and foster hope and connection in our community. Every life matters, and early intervention can save lives.
